[Someone has drawn a picture of a sun that looks sort of like this. Under it is a note written in very scratchy, boyish handwriting.]

Everyone here is talking about feeling sick and nervous, but I do hope everyone manages to return to full health soon!

A good way to greater wellness is to remain in action! Do not sit idle even if you are held indoors! Eat good protein that is low in fat content, as well as plenty of fresh vegetables and fruits! I would suggest making yourselves vitamin-rich smoothies but I do not think that is an option here.

I do hope to hear of better results in the future. Remember! The best time to start training is always the present!

I wouldn't mind one of those smoothies. I slept through breakfast.

Your enthusiasm is an inspiration.

[And someone has drawn a moon beside the sun.]

[awokentospring]

They are quite deicious! Someone should make this happen! I am sorry to hear your missed the most important meal of the day! Jump-starting the metabolism is one of the greatest benefits of eating a good breakfast!

I am thrilled to know you are inspired by me! It is a splendid to hear!

[And now Lee has added some lines so that the sun and moon are holding hands.]

[impudentsongbird]

Do you have the recipe? Maybe we can find the ingredients on our own.

You're welcome!

[Now they have happy little stars all around them, resting on their heads like a flock of tame birds.]

[awokentospring]

That is the thing! Smoothies are all about experimentation! One needs only to choose a base fruit like melon or banana, and then the rest is up to your taste! I prefer smoothies with banana, several types of berries, and then yogurt for protein as well as to help sweeten if needed. Ice can also be used, along with juices, nuts, and sugar, but adding straight sugar is not very healthy.

I also enjoy creating vegetable juices, too, because then you can add lots of spice!

We should try getting ingredients of our own to use! That would be splendid! I am sure it would not be a problem!

[Lee has also added some clouds with smiling faces as well!]

[impudentsongbird]

It all sounds amazing. I've never made my own smoothies before; we should start with your favourite and work our way across. Are there gardens here? Fruit always tastes better fresh from the tree.

[Now there is a comet flying over them too.]

[awokentospring]

I am glad you think so! And we shall! I am called Rock Lee, by the way!

I am not sure about gardens, but I will ask my designated companion if there is anything available!

[And there are now random clovers and leaves drawn here and there.]

[impudentsongbird]

I'm Gabe. It's my pleasure to speak to you, Lee!

There's a courtyard. I'll ask if I can go out there later today, I think. Maybe I'll see something.

[And tiny blossoms in among the leaves.]

[awokentospring]

The pleasure is mine, Gabe-san!

That sounds like an excellent idea! I will also scout out the area and see what I can find!

[And now a very simple-looking kitty cat has appeared there. He would have drawn it playing in the leaves but he can't do anything quite that elaborate.]

[impudentsongbird]

Good luck! Let me know if you find anything. I'll bet we can come up with something delicious, whatever there is available.

[That's okay. Gabe's given it a ball of string to play with.]

[awokentospring]

Certainly! Let us endeavor to the best of our abilities, then!

[And a turtle friend has been added to the picture!]

[impudentsongbird]

Definitely. I look forward to meeting you in person. Until then, Lee-kun.

[With a third friend in a bee buzzing around the flowers.]

[awokentospring]

Until then, Gabe-san!

[What a glorious mural they have made! Now if only they had some glitter to give it some zazz.]
